Sign Kevin Zeitler

Keeping with the theme of Wisconsin offensive linemen, the Broncos make another big move up front to get the 26-year old Zeitler, a former first round pick and one of the better guards on the open market this offseason.

He could cost a pretty penny, but look at what has gone on with the Oakland Raiders over the last season or two. Look at the progression of the Dallas Cowboys offensively. The Broncos need to make necessary investments in the offensive line to improve on that side of the ball.

With Wagner and Zeitler on board, the right side of the Broncos’ offensive line would be solidified. They would have Russell Okung taking the left tackle spot, and Matt Paradis at the center. That would leave one question at left guard, where I think Max Garcia is going to progress. They could also see what they have in Connor McGovern.

Adding Zeitler would be a huge move for Denver’s hopes offensively.
